Cynipoid wasp, I'd say Eucoilidae.

Ithink Paul is right.Note the plate/teardrop shaped mesoscutellum in this Kleidotoma http://cse.naro.a...dotoma.htm so Eucoilidae...and the wing hints this way too. But lets wait for Proctross |

This is Eucoiline (Figitidae).  The eucoiline Figitidae are sometimes treated as a distinct family, the Eucoilidae. The eucoiline can be readily recognized by the presence of a raised plate on the dorsal surface of the scutellum. |

Thanks a lot to all of you. Are there other species in the Eucolinae family than the Eucoila genus to be found in Fauna europaea ? Instead of asking, I'd better look myself : 18 genera. Proctoss: I was wrong when I thought this was your avatar? Edited by pierred on 06-10-2006 19:26 Pierre Duhem |

This was not my avatar. Avatar belong to genus Coptera (fam. Diapriidae). I suppose that it looks like helmet of Dark Vaider (Star Wars)
